Disney+ Releases Season Two Trailer for “Diary of a Future President”

Disney+ released their official trailer and key art for season two of the original series, Diary of a Future President. The upcoming season will return to Disney+ on Wednesday, August 18, with all ten episodes available for binge-worthy streaming.

Continuing the origin story of Cuban American and future leader Elena Cañero-Reed (played by Tess Romaro) as she enters the seventh grade and recounts through excerpts from 13-year-old Elena’s diary, this coming-of-age series follows Elena through the ups and downs of middle school, which sets her on the path to becoming the President of the United States.  

Elena narrates the sweet trailer, where audiences observe the changing relationships between her friends, the struggles of growing up, and what it means to find yourself. Most notably, she verbalizes that “you don’t shut out people eager to lift you up” and that “being there for others and lifting them up” is all she wants to do.

In a press release early this summer, show-runner Ilana Peña shares that “[they] are so excited for season 2 and cannot wait to share this next chapter of ‘Diary’ with viewers.” 

“This seasonElena will inch closer to the bright future we know she achieves, but like any origin story, her journey is not without its hurdles and heartaches. She and her family and friends will all continue to grow up and come into their own this year. I promise you’ll laugh, I’m pretty sure you’ll cry, and most of all, I hope this season is as meaningful to watch as it was for all of us to make,” she continues.  

Gina Rodriguez, who plays future Elena, shares, “I’m honored and grateful to be able to return to this series for a season two. I love that this heartfelt show celebrates a Latinx family and epitomizes our commitment to inclusive storytelling.”

Diary of a Future President also stars Selenis Leyva as Elena’s mother “Gabi,” Charlie Bushnell as Elena’s brother “Bobby”, and Michael Weaver as Gabi’s boyfriend, “Sam.”

The recurring cast includes Jessica Marie Garcia as Gabi’s colleague “Camila,” Carmina Garay as Elena’s best friend “Sasha,” Sanai Victoria as Elena’s classmate “Melissa,” Harmeet Pandey as Elena’s friend “Jessica,” as well as Brandon Severs and Nathan Arenas as Bobby’s friends “Liam” and “Danny.”
